HBS345 is a Cloud (online) unit involving students from Nursing, Psychology, Occupational Therapy, Social Work, Dietetics, Clinical Exercise Physiology and Medicine. There are two streams to this unit that run concurrently throughout the trimester: the self-directed IPE stream and the interactive case conference stream.

In the self-directed IPE stream students explore in a self-directed manner the key themes of the unit including what is Interprofessional Collaboration, understanding your own and others personal style, health professionals roles, leadership in collaborative teams, teams and team development, and conflict management and assertiveness in collaborative teams.

In the interactive case conference stream students participate in weekly discussions with their team via CloudDeakin and participate in three case conferences using Blackboard Collaborate in which they collaborate with the other health professional students in their team to develop a care plan for each case and consider issues related to interprofessional teams.
